Port Angeles West Micro-island ort Angeles East Micro-islan
f Division N ivision 0
Damage from the Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake will divide Clallam County
into 20 geographically isolated communities called micro-islands. The landslides,
broken bridges/culverts, tsunami and liquefaction zones that will cause these
separations have already been identified.
Clallam County Emergency Management grouped these micro-islands into S Area
Commands to facilitate rescue and response actions. Each Area Command is using
"ground truth" observations to craft response plans that meet their situations.
The area between Morse Creek and the Elwha River is designated Area Command 4.
It is the only Area Command in the county that has not begun planning for the
emergency. No political sub-division has agreed to take responsibility for planning for
this emergency.
The following slides show the predicted damage to the greater Port Angeles area
infrastructure. NOTE: FEMA HITRAC studies predict 80% of all roads in Clallam County
will suffer deformations of 3" or more. This damage is in addition to that predicted on
the following slides.

The only access to the Mount Pleasant Community Sub-division is via the Hwy 101
Morse Creek Bridge to the east and over the Hwy 101 Lee's Creek Culvert to the west.
The bridge is expected to be destroyed. The fill over the Lee's Creek culvert is
expected to suffer compaction failure making the highway unusable until heavy
equipment can level the road. Draper Road may provide an emergency alternate
route to the west. There is no alternate access to the east.
The active landslide at the corner of Hwy 101 and Cottonwood Lane is expected to
block the highway, Cottonwood Lane and possibly dam Morse Creek, flooding the
Cottonwood Community. Additional landslides may block escape routes from the
Cottonwood Community on both sides of the creek.
Four Seasons Ranch can expect tsunami inundation below 40' elevation with possibly
higher runup. Residents west of the Bridge Lane bridge may have to evacuate to safe
elevations near the Koenigs car dealership by foot.
RESIDENTS LIVING IN THESE ZONES MUST PLAN ON SURVING IN ALTERNATE
LOCATIONS FOR A MINIMUM OF 30 DAYS.
Residents should plan to survive with minimal assistance from outside the
community until the Hwy 101 is opened to Port of Port Angeles or the airport.
Residents must plan on sheltering in place for a minimum of 30 days.

culverts on both creeks are expected to suffer compaction failure making the highway
unusable until heavy equipment can level the road. There is critical compaction
problem in the zone between Cafe Garden and Wendy's east bound and between
Thurman's and the Rayonier Access Road west bound. Expect significant building and
road damage in this area.
RESIDENTS LIVING IN THIS ZONE MUST PLAN ON SURVING IN ALTERNATE LOCATIONS
FOR A MINIMUM OF 30 DAYS.

0 landslide Zone over culverts or damaged bridges
The Olympic Medical Center Sub-division is bounded by Lee's Creek on the east and
Peabody Creek on the west. Hwy 101 is the only east west connection. The fills over the
culverts on both creeks are expected to suffer compaction failures making the highway
unusable until heavy equipment can level the road. This is especially serious at White
Creek where land settlement is expected to be severe.
The area between the creeks south of 8th Street to the harbor is random unconsolidated
fill built during the early 20th century. It is moderately subject to liquefaction. Any
liquefaction in this urban neighborhood will have an impact on foundations and
underground utilities. It will certainly result in some housing collapse and sewage
contamination of surface water. All of this flows downhill to OMC.
DNR landslide hazard maps show a slide hazard on the hillsides north of Lauridsen Blvd to
the base of the hill.
OMC may survive the quake if the unsecured propane tank 20 feet from the bluff doesn't
explode and burn the place down (OMC has been warned about this). It will need hours of
extensive cleanup before it can serve as anything more than an aid station.
Areas below the 40' contour can expect to be destroyed by a tsunami about 1 hour after
the CSZE. This means all structures below First and Lincoln will be destroyed or
uninhabitable.
RESIDENTS LIVING IN THESE ZONES MUST PLAN ON SURVING IN ALTERNATE LOCATIONS
FOR A MINIMUM OF 30 DAYS.

The PAHS Community Sub-division is bounded by Peabody Creek on the east and Valley
Creek on the west. City streets provide numerous east-west connections but fills over
the culverts on both creeks are expected to suffer compaction failure making them
unusable for vehicles until heavy equipment can level the roads. This is especially
serious along Lincoln Street near the Court House and City Hall where photo records
show unconsolidated fill. Land settlement is expected to be severe. Roads may be
available for foot traffic.
The area between the creeks north of 8th Street to the harbor is believed to be random
unconsolidated fill built during the early 20th century. It is subject to moderate
liquefaction. Any liquefaction in this urban neighborhood will have an impact on
foundations and underground utilities. It will certainly result in sewage contamination
of surface water.
The tsunami zone shown here is also a SEVERE LIQUEFACTION ZONE. Extensive
foundation failures are expected during the earthquake. The tsunami is expected to
destroy all buildings in the city lower than the corner of First and Lincoln Streets.
Residents living outside of the tsunami and liquefaction zones should plan to survive
with minimal assistance from outside the community until Hwy 101 is opened.
Residents must plan on sheltering in place for a minimum of 30 days.
RESIDENTS LIVING IN THE TSUNAMI AND LIQUEFACTION ZONES MUST PLAN ON
SURVIVNG AT ALTERNATE LOCATIONS OUTSIDE OF THE ZONES FOR A MINIMUM OF
30 DAYS WITHOUT SUPPORT.

The earthquake is expected to destroy the Black Diamond Bridge and block the Little

Hwy 101. The Hwy 101 Valley Creek and Tumwater Creek fills will suffer compaction
failure and will have to be regraded.

The Airport Community is on stable material. It is expected to survive the earthquake
with minimal ground displacement. The tsunami will inundate the Elwha Reservation
and Ediz Hook to the 40' elevation.
Slides will block Hill and 5th Street escape routes from the tsunami zone. Some
houses on the north side of 4th Street and Milwaukie Drive may be in danger of
landslides.
The Elwha River Bridges are expected to collapse.

William F. Fairchild Airport as Emergency Operations Base
Clallam County EMD is planning on using the William F. Fairchild as the county
Emergency Operations Base. The Washington National Guard held several exercises
to test the feasibility of this plan. They support the plan.
The close proximity of the fairgrounds, city-county-state-Port-PUD-Transit facilities
along with numerous heavy industrial and construction companies make this an
excellent place to mobilize and carry out rescue/response/recovery activities.
The City of Port Angeles needs to prepare for this emergency or officially hand-off
responsibility to the county. A decision has to be made as to whether the City takes
charge of the plan or participates in setting up a unified Area 4 Command. Non-action
is not an option.
The county's suggested plan is to:
• Set up the Emergency Operations Center
• Start Life/safety rescue and response
• Open a ground route from the airport to the hospital
• Open ground route from Morse Creek to the Elwha for food distribution
Please let me know us know how the City would like to proceed.
